## Abstract ## BACKGROUND 2,3,7,8‐Tetrachlorodibenzo‐__p__‐dioxin (TCDD) exposure prior to chick embryo incubation (GD 0) induces dilated cardiomyopathy, and reduces myocardial hypoxia, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A) expression, and coronary vascularization. We investigated whether

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Previous research has demonstrated that 2,3,7,8‐tetrachlorodibenzo‐__p__‐dioxin (TCDD) induces cardiomyocyte growth arrest, thinner ventricle walls, and reduced number and size of coronary arteries during chick embryogenesis. Coronary vascular development is believed to b
## Abstract This study assessed the effects of 2,3,7,8‐tetrachlorodibenzo‐__p__‐dioxin (TCDD), 2,3,4,7,8‐pentachlorodibenzofuran (PeCDF), and 2,3,7,8‐tetrachlorodibenzofuran (TCDF) on the reproductive performance of female mink (__Mustela vison__) and the viability and growth of their offspring. Ni
To study the long-term effect of 2,3,7,8tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) on the DNAbinding activity of nuclear transcription factors; a single dose of TCDD was injected intraperitoneally to male guinea pigs (1 lg/kg i.p.). The animals were killed after 1, 2, 10, 20, 28, and 40 days, and DNA-bindin
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND 2,3,7,8‐Tetrachlorodibenzo‐p‐dioxin (TCDD) is teratogenic in mice, producing cleft palate (CP). TCDD exposure disrupts expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, EGF, and transforming growth factor‐α (TGFα) in the palate and affects proliferation and differenti
## Abstract An acutely toxic dose of 2,3,7,8‐tetrachlorodibenzo‐__p__‐dioxin (TCDD) leads to a drastically and permanently reduced feed intake and wasting by an unknown mechanism. We focused on the possible interference of TCDD with hypothalamic factors known to take part in the regulation of eatin
